… the point is that there\u2019s something about this pope that can\u2019t be adequately accounted for in terms of purely human calculations, something that requires a supernatural or mystical point of reference in order to be properly understood.<\/p>\n

In a nutshell, the enigma is this: What accounts for the sharp contrast between Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio in Argentina and Pope Francis today?<\/p>\n

For sure, that contrast is not absolute. During his 15 years as the archbishop of Buenos Aires, Bergoglio was committed to the poor, strove to re-light the Church\u2019s missionary fires, and lived a life of gospel simplicity. All are traits he\u2019s carried into the papacy.<\/p>\n

Yet there clearly is a difference in style and personality, because the Bergoglio of Argentina was nobody\u2019s idea of a pop culture sensation.<\/p>\n

The cardinal rarely appeared in public and almost never gave formal interviews. When he did have to take the public stage, friends would call him \u201cshy\u201d and critics \u201cboring.\u201d Nobody came away saying he turned the world on with his smile. In fact, it\u2019s hard to find a photo of a beaming Bergoglio taken before his election two years ago.<\/p>\n

Neither was he the spontaneous, shoot-from-the-hip sound bite machine the world sees today. He came off as more controlled, more circumspect, always preferring to operate quietly behind the scenes rather than in public view.<\/p>\n

When I asked her in April 2013 what she made of the change, Maria Elena Bergoglio, the pope\u2019s only surviving sibling, said jokingly: \u201cI don\u2019t recognize this guy!\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Allen skriver ogs\u00e5 om en kardinal som har snakket med pave Frans, og som har en forklaring p\u00e5 denne dramtatiske personlighetsforandringen:<\/p>\n

\u201cOver Christmas 2013, a veteran Latin American cardinal who has known Bergoglio for decades made an appointment to see his old friend in the Santa Marta, the hotel on Vatican grounds where the pope has chosen to reside. (He lives in Room 201, a slightly larger room than the one he stayed in during the conclave that elected him, giving the pontiff enough space to receive guests comfortably).<\/p>\n

\u201cThe cardinal, who didn\u2019t wish to be named, said he looked at Francis and, referring to the exuberance and spontaneity that are now hallmarks of his public image, said to him point-blank: \u2018You are not the same man I knew in Buenos Aires. What\u2019s happened to you\u2019?<\/p>\n

\u201cAccording to the cardinal, this was Francis\u2019 answer:<\/p>\n

\u201c \u2018On the night of my election, I had an experience of the closeness of God that gave me a great sense of interior freedom and peace,\u2019 the cardinal quoted the pope as saying, \u2018and that sense has never left me.\u2019 \u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
